What was the price of the plane?

Sr, i cant find a deal like this is reserved to people who do not need a low price airplane to fly, i am evaluating the options and has 2, the patzmany pl-2 and the zenth as yours, in numbers, they are very similar, even look similar ( as all 2 seat homebulid from the 50's to present even a falco ) but how about construction skills? work as aluminum boat builder and mechanic,i think craftmanship will help me,as i live in mexicali, export from usa just will raise the price of any kit, may be will be a pazmany with zenith cowling , not sure, but regarding aerodynamic resistance ,speed, cl, they are very similar, pazmany plans was made to scratch building , will appreciate your guide.

I have a SPA kit I would like to sell. 10K and it's yours. export shouldn't be an issue since it's not a new kit purchase. The PA28 in this deal was a risk reward scenario. if the engine was bad, it would cost 30K to overhaul. These guys took that risk.
